Air at 80 kPa and 127°C enters an adiabatic diffuser steadily at a rate of 6200 kg/h and leaves at 100 kPa. The velocity of the airstream is decreased from 230 m/s to 30 m/s as it passes through the diffuser. The gas constant of air is 0.287 kPa·m3/kg·K. The enthalpy of air at the inlet temperature of 400 K is h1 = 400.98 kJ/kg. Find

(a) the exit temperature of the air and
(b) the exit area of the buffer

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
